Throat: Great question. Could be dryness, allergic, medication related or a sign of silent acid reflux also called LPR. If you are otherwise healthy and not on Coumadin (warfarin) you could try taking an OTC antacid  to see if it helps.

Other causes could be post nasl drip or sometimes dental problems.  See your doctor for examination to determine the cause and then you can get proper treatment.

Many, many sources: The first thing you thing about is a cold, viral infection, or upper respiratory infection (all closely related in definition). However, this could be from multiple things, including allergies, post nasal drainage, or even gerd or acid reflux. Would need a little more info, but those are some places to start thinking about! hope that helps.

Question 8

a pill got stuck in my throat and now my throat burns, what should i do?

Accepted Answer

May need help: In general, most pills will dissolve in your throat and should not cause any permanent damage. It depends on what type of pill you swallowed, for eg. Doxycycline can be quite caustic to the esophagus.  If the burning is severe and isn't getting better with drinking water, you should go to  acute care center or an ed.

Question 9

had a reflux and some of it went the wrong way. coughed a little. breathing fine. throat burns little. am i fine?

Accepted Answer

You're fine: You may have aspirated a bit, but it sounds like you cleared it immediately and all is well. If that is a chronic problem, you should seek attention from your doctor. Also try to increase the fiber in your diet. Eating a pound of vegetables each day and a cup of beans per day is linked to life extension but is also linked to less gerd symptoms.

Question 10

my throat burns after eating mango, what's wrong?

Accepted Answer

Consider allergy?: Perhaps there can be some type of allergy you have with certain foods?  My suggestion would be to keep a food diary of everything you eat along with how you feel after those meals.  See if there is a correlation with certain foods you eat  and your symptoms.  You may find it could be something else you are eating as well!
